Someone hook me up with a good shepherd's pie recipe.

Re: Someone hook me up with a good shepherd's pie recipe.

  • I don't have a real recipe... I just scramble some hamburger with some diced onions, toss in some corn niblets, put them in the bottom of a 9x13 pan... then I put mashed potatoes on top (mashed with butter and a little milk)... I sprinkle some paprika over the potatoes then bake at 350 until the potatoes start getting golden brown. You can also add peas or other veggies in with the scrambled hamburger and corn, but DH doesn't like peas so I usually leave them out. 

    I've heard some people add creamed corn in between the hamburger and potato layers, but I have never tried it myself.

  • I brown a package of hamburger with a little garlic powder and diced onion... then I make the instant mashed potatoes... it's really good if you use a package of the three cheese and a package of the garlic and mix them together.  Then I add 1 can cream corn and 1 can regular corn to the hamburger mixture, top with the mashed potatoes and back at 350 until golden brown.  It's super easy.
  • This is the last one I made, about two weeks ago. Easy and yummy. I used ground turkey instead of lamb; ground beef would work fine too. I also added shredded cheddar to the potatoes and sprinkled some on top. Mmm...cheeeeeese. :)

  • I scramble hamburg and layer that on the bottom.

    I add sweet canned peas and a can of corn on the next for the next layer

     I put my own mashed potatoes for the last layer (mashed with garlic powder, whole milk, butter, parmasean cheese, pepper) on top and then I sprinkle the rest of the bag of shredded mozzerella or cheddar cheese and also sprinkle with bread crumbs.

     Bake at 350 for 25 min! YUM!

  • Mine is pretty plain / basic.. scramble up about 1 1/2lbs hamburger with Garlic powder.... Put that on the bottom of the pan...  Then mix 2 cans of regular corn and 2 cans of cream corn together and put that on top of the hamburger.  Then the potatos on top of that... put some peprika on the top and bake for 40 minutes covered, then another 15 uncovered on 350

  • I make it on the fly.

    Brown some beef (or turkey) (at least one pound for a small square dish, maybe 2 lbs. for a larger dish) in a skillet.  Drain.

    Put beef in bottom of baking dish.  Add can of beef or turkey gravy.  Mix in veggies such as corn, peas, carrots, whatever you like.  You can do canned (drained), frozen, fresh, whatever.  Season however you wish with salt, pepper, etc.  I mix the meat, veggies, and corn together but you could just keep it layered if you want.

    Top with mashed potatoes.  I prefer fresh mashed, but I'll do instant when I'm lazy or in a rush.  You'll need two batches of fake spuds for sure for a larger dish, you can just get away with one batch of fake spuds for a smaller dish.

    Put a few pats of butter on top of the potatoes, and bake on 350 or so for maybe 30 minutes, just until the top peaks of the spuds start to get toasted looking.

  • I do 1 1/2 Lbs of hamburger browned with garlic powder and onion powder. Once that is all mixed together and browned and drained I also add a Tablespoon of sugar to give it a little something. I use a box of frozen sweet corn nibs and add them to the mixture to defrost. Then I put that in the bottom of a cassrol dish and add two packages of instant mashed poatos prepared. I bake it at 350 for about 20 min. then I sprinkle cheese on and put it back in for about 5-7 min,
  • thank you, everyone. Great ideas. I'll post after I make one on what I did and how it came out!!!
